Is anyone using a Samsung Galaxy S4?

I am experiencing a strange anomaly with nextrad adsb weather updates. It doesn't not seem to refresh properly and I am trying to figure out what is going on.  Is anyone else experiencing nextrad weather refresh problems?  I do not recall having this problem with the S2.   I am using a pathfinder adsb reciever.

Hi Eric, thank you for posting.  If you'd like me to review the ADSB logs for you, you can do the following:

1. Menu => About => Connected Devices => Wireles Device => Enable ADS-B Logger (check the box)
2. Then each restart of iFly, it'll prompt you "Do you want to keep ADS-B logger enabled?" -- answer "Yes" each time to keep this logger enabled.
3. Then reproduce the issue - with a fresh restart of iFly, and have it connect to ADSB device, and produce the erroneous weather refresh problems.   As issues happen, write down the relative timing of it (time since application startup, and description of what happened).
4. Then when connected to internet, select "Menu => About => Send Bug Report => Select File => scroll down to the ADS-B log file with the correct time stamp"  and this'll send me that log file via email.

In the body of the email, please describe what you are seeing from what you recorded above while watching it misbehave.  This'll help me find the times when issue occurred and hopefully find out the root cause.
